Lee Child - Die Trying

Date Read: January 2011

A Chicago street in bright sunshine. Jack Reacher, strolling nowhere, meets an attractive young woman, limping, struggling with her crutches, alone. Naturally he stops to offer her a steadying arm and then they turn together—to face twin handguns held level and motionless and aimed straight at their stomachs.

My Thoughts: Almost as brilliant as the first but in an entirely different way. We see Reacher at full throttle in this one. The action doesn't stop and the scenes are pretty vivid and full of thrills, still with the legendary cheese and over-the-top, well, everything.

Just ignore the fact that the word "shrugged" is used a million times...


I RATED THIS 8/10
